  Ms. BORDALLO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to commend and congratulate

  Quick to learn the dynamics of a successful legal practice, Fred 
opened Horecky & Associates in 1983, a general practice law firm. 
Horecky & Associates quickly grew from sole practitioner to six 
attorneys specializing in a several areas of jurisprudence.
   Currently, Fred practices law as a sole practitioner specializing in

Utilities Commission and Administrative Law Judge for power, 
telecommunications, and solid waste matters. He is the owner and Chief 
Executive Officer of two businesses, Buena Vista Realty LLC and Buena
